Chapter 367: One man is in charge
It is said that Chen Long ambushed on all sides in Niutou Gorge, waiting for Yuan Shang to enter the net. Yuan Shang was anxious to return to Yecheng to seize the power of Jizhou, and he led his troops through the relatively safe western front of Yecheng, so he did not stop at night, drove the cavalry to light torches, and headed straight for Niutou Canyon.
General Yan Liang had exhausted his troops, and Yuan Shang decided to advance rashly. Yan Liang had no choice but to personally guard Yuan Shang with his sword. While Yuan Shang was walking, he suddenly saw a fork in the canyon. He remembered that his elder brother Yuan Tan had gone somewhere, and this canyon led to Handan. Why not let someone go explore it? Then he ordered his guards to select more than ten riders, and so on. In this way, after giving the order, I watched the team fight their horses and entered the canyon branch.
This time, it was the cavalry commander Fu Tong who was ambushing in the canyon. He had 10,000 cavalrymen, who were already stationed in the middle of the dark road. As soon as Yuan Shang's cavalry passed through, they rushed out to cut off Yuan Shang's path. Then I thought that suddenly more than ten riders rushed into the fork in the road and collided with Fu Tong's front army. Although they were quickly killed by Fu Tong and his men, the screams still reached the ears of General Yan Liang across the mountains and valleys.
At this time, Yuan Shangjun's front team was only a few miles away from the cavalry trap set by Zhou Buji. Taishi Ci's archers were on the left, and Chen Long's heavy sword and shield troops were on the right. They were all ambushed. His figure was just waiting for the core where the torches gathered in the middle to enter the pocket specially designed for him.
A scream came unexpectedly from the Handan Road. As a general, Yan Liang was one of the top martial artists at the time. He had towering temples, sharp ears and eyes, and could hear clearly. Yan Liang's expression changed at that moment, and he grabbed Yuan Shang's horse's head. Without waiting for Yuan Shang's order, he shouted: "The whole army retreats!"
The cavalry trained by Yan Liang were also well-trained. In an instant, the horse's head turned into a horse's tail, and the whole army retreated in an orderly manner, far away from the pocket formation prepared by Chen Long and Taishi Ci.
Taishi Ci didn't know what was going on, when Chen Long's roar came, ordering an attack. Taishi Ci immediately ordered to fire arrows. After several rounds of arrow rain, Yuan Shang's rear team had already lost two of its three stops. Chen Long's heavily armed sword and shield soldiers had already surged up, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the Jizhou army. Chen Long shouted "Those who surrender will not be killed" and took the lead in fighting through the dense buttocks of the Jizhou army.
Yan Liang was protecting the young master Yuan Shang and retreating desperately when he suddenly heard Chen Long roaring. He was shocked and said in his heart: "Hurry up, the enemy master is coming. You protect the young master and leave quickly!" Instead, he turned around and thrust the steel knife in front of him. , fighting the horse and standing still, the entire cavalry team was divided into left and right sides from both sides of him, running past with a roar.
The position occupied by Yan Liang was in the middle of the two forked roads in the canyon, a place where the marching army must pass. The young general Fu Tong had already led his team to fight out of Handan Road. Yan Liang happened to immediately rush forward, and the other guards rushed over to protect Yuan Shang. Fu Tong's cavalry rushed out and instantly cut off the Jizhou cavalry. During the chaos, Fu Tong realized that Yuan Shang had rushed over. His eyes instantly turned red. He chased after him with a horse and a gun. He happened to meet the Hebei general Yan Liang who was riding with his sword drawn.
Fu Tong was young and vigorous, and was already a famous general in Sichuan and Jing Dynasty. He followed Chen Long for many years and received the most advanced training, and his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds. Seeing Yan Liang riding in front, his momentum was like that of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi. He saw that he was an enemy general, so he didn't dare to underestimate him. With one move of his big spear, he shot him falsely in the heart. It's a pity that Chen Long was not around and did not tell Fu Tong that the opposite side was Yan Liang, a famous general in the Central Plains.
Yan Liang saw the white-faced young man opposite him stabbing him with a spear, but he didn't have the momentum to move forward. He understood that Fu Tong's spear was just to detect the truth, and it also concealed countless back moves. Turning into reality, thunder and lightning came towards Yan Liang's nest. Yan Liang's steel knife swung and deflected Fu Tong's hard-earned shot. Then he followed with a backhand knife, which struck Fu Tong's ear as fast as lightning.
Fu Tong didn't expect that the other party was so skilled in martial arts, and the sword was so powerful and fast. His gun was pulled out of the outer door and he could no longer block it. Fortunately, Fu Tong had quick eyesight and quick hands. He jerked his neck and heard a clang. The top of the iron helmet had been cut in half by Yan Liang's steel knife. His messy hair immediately fell down, and the hair cut off by the steel knife was flying in the sky.
Fu Tong's scalp felt cold, and he was so frightened by the knife that he almost threw away his steel gun, and just hit his horse and escaped from the side of the circle. After running for a distance, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him and there was no pursuit. He turned around and saw Yan Liang standing still. Knowing that he was covering Yuan Shang's escape, he shouted: "Come on, General Tongming! Who are you?"
Yan Liang laughed loudly and said proudly: "Listen up, children! Your grandfather's name is Yan Mingliang. Don't forget to cry to your father when you go back. It's your grandfather who cut off your bun."
Fu Tong was furious, and suddenly remembered that his lord had told him that there were two generals in Hebei, one was Yan Liang and the other was Wen Chou, and they had to be extra careful when encountering them. What he met now was General Yan Liang! As expected, his strength is extraordinary and his martial arts skills are superior to his own.
Fu Tong was worried when he saw the torch light going farther and farther behind Yan Liang. Suddenly he heard the roaring sound behind him, and said with great joy: "Yan Liang, don't leave! Wait until my lord comes to take care of you! My lord, come here quickly!"
Yan Liang had no intention of leaving, but his face became extremely solemn. The lord in the young general's mouth was the one shouting at the moment. His internal strength was by no means inferior to his own. Who knows how strong his martial arts skills were?
Chen Long heard Fu Tong's call and knew that Fu Tong had encountered a powerful enemy. He roared again, dismounted his horse and immediately jumped up. With his spear dancing, he opened a passage in an instant, and several people landed next to Fu Tong. Seeing Fu Tong with messy hair and a tall and mighty general in front of him holding a steel knife, he already understood half of it.
Chen Long stopped his horse and looked at Yan Liang. For a moment, it seemed that all the disturbances around him were cut off. Between heaven and earth, he was the only one facing off against Yan Liang.
I saw Yan Liang, dressed neatly and neatly, with a calm demeanor and sharp eyes. A big head, two brush eyebrows, a nose that reaches the sky, and a wide mouth. It's just that she can't be said to be beautiful or ugly, and her beauty is unclear, but her tall and majestic upper body, coupled with her two powerful arms, and the tightly held steel knife, form a strange charm that makes people shudder.
In Yan Liang's eyes, the man opposite him was wearing golden armor and shining brightly in the firelight. He seemed to be very young and handsome, and he was very tall. With an aura that could rival his own, he no longer dared to feel any contempt. There was pressure between the two of them. Yan Liang pointed at Chen Long with his sword and shouted: "My Yan Liang sword will not kill the nameless ghost, so you can tell me your name as soon as possible!"
Chen Long smiled coldly and said: "Your name is Yan Liang, right? How come I've never heard of your number one in Jizhou! If you are smart, you can put your horse aside and immediately abandon your sword and surrender. If I capture your young master, I can spare your life."
Yan Liang was dumbfounded when he heard this. He had never seen such a shameless person. He knew that the other person was seducing him to make him angry. He sneered and said: "Nobody! If you don't want to say your name, forget it. Use your gun to speak!" He said with the handle of the knife! One horizontal move, one forward and one reverse with both hands, holding the handle of the knife tightly. No matter where Chen Long attacks from, he can fight back with both hands.
Chen Long slowly raised his gun and stabbed when he was distracted. The power of the gun was like thunder and lightning, with an indomitable ferocity. Compared with Fu Tong's test just now, it was exactly the opposite. It seemed that as soon as he raised his hand, the tip of the gun was in front of Yan Liang.
There was no need for Yan Liang to look at reality. If such a brutal shot was not blocked, there would be a transparent hole in his body. Yan Liang cheered up and shouted loudly: "Well done!" He moved his hands left and right, the steel knife danced like a moon, and struck at the tip of Chen Long's spear.
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
